“It was the work of naughty boys and not religious extremists,”KUCHING, Jan 12 — The police believe the stone-throwing incident at the Lutong Good Shepherd Church in Miri on Sunday, which left several window panes smashed, was initiated by delinquents.
Sarawak Police Commissioner Datuk Mohmad Salleh said police have not received any more reports on church attacks in the state and that the situation was under control.
“It was the work of naughty boys and not religious extremists,” he told reporters after a monthly Sarawak police contingent assembly here today.
Mohmad said he ordered his officers to leave their telephone numbers with church officials to enable quick action to be taken in the event of any untoward incident.
He said the police were keeping all houses of worships, including churches and mosques, under surveillance, he added. — Reuters
